Objectives: Physical function in RA is largely influenced by multiple clinical factors, however, there is a growing body of evidence that psychological state and other comorbidities also play an essential role. Using data obtained in the COVID-19 Vaccination in Autoimmune Diseases study, an international self-reported e-survey, we aimed to explore the predictive ability of sociodemographic and clinical variables on Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Physical Function Short Form 10a (PROMIS PF-10a) in RA and to investigate variation in disease activity and functional outcomes based on country-level socio-economic parameters.
Methods: Patient demographics, disease characteristics including current symptom status, functional status and treatment variables, as well as income level of the country of residence, were extracted from survey responses.

Objective: This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the association between insomnia and the presence of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and its subtypes in orthodontic patients.
Methods: A total of 648 adult orthodontic patients (158 males and 490 females, median age 26) were included and completed a questionnaire containing sociodemographic information, insomnia severity index (ISI), the five major temporomandibular disorder symptoms (5Ts) checklist, and self-reported sleep bruxism. Presence of insomnia and TMD of the included patients was determined according to the diagnostic criteria, and statistical analyses were conducted as appropriate to compare ISI-related scores between TMD and non-TMD participants.
